Sao estudados em 30 caes, os resultados obtidos com a aplicacao endovenosa de cloridrato de xilazina a 2% seguida da administracao de pentobarbital sodico a 3%. Sao comparados os resultados com os obtidos em um lote de 5 animais anestesiados exclusivamente com pentobarbital sodico e observados, nos lotes experimentais, reducao da quantidade do barbiturico consumido e dos tempos medios de duracao da fase de anestesia cirurgica e necessario para o retorno. As frequencias de pulso e respiratoria mostraram-se diminuidas logo apos a aplicacao das 2 drogas. No tocante a temperatura retal apenas os animais do lote controle apresentaram diferencas significativas ao nivel de 0,05.

Sao estudados em 6 animais da especie canina, tecnicaoperatoria para tratamento da hernia perineal. Sao empregadas paraoclusao da porta hemiaria, malha de polipropileno fixada ao tecidomuscular circundante por meio de sutura em pontos separados comfio numero 00 do mesmo material. Obtem-se resultados satisfaroriosem todos animais operados que mostraram recuperacao completa,sem ocorrencia de alteracoes macroscopicas.

Anesthesia by endovenous injection of 1,01 to 1,50mg/kg of xylazine followed by administration of different doses of pentobarbital sodium were studied in 25 dogs. It was observed different times of animal surgical anesthesia as so in the necessary times to recover and those verified in 5 control dogs. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences (P < .05) among control and treated groups.

The authors study in 9 animals of the bovine species, Holstein Friesian, the surgical technique to correct the umbilical hernia. To obstruct the hernial ring they use separate points in "U" (lateral overlapping technique) with a thread of polypropylene no2. After they reinforce the suture applying polypropylene mesh on the sheet of rectus m. and then suture it using separate points and thread of the same material. They obtain good results in all the operated animals. They recovered completely and there were no macroscopic alterations. After 110 days of the polypropylene applications there was a histopatologic exam in one of the animals. This exam showed a little chronicle inflammatory process in the tissue that involved the polypropylene mesh.

The behavior of 60 surgical patient dogs anesthetized endovenously with 1,01 - 1,50 mg/kg of xylazine followed by sodium pentobarbital as necessary for operation types, were studied. Groups of dogs were stablished based on both operation length and barbituric consumption. It was observed in 37 dogs (61,66%) a consumption of 5,09 mg/kg of pentobarbital/17,43 minutes of operation; 19 animals (31,66%) were operated with 10,27 mg/kg of pentobarbital in 30,26 minutes; 3 dogs (5,00%) used 15,02mg/kg in 48,33 minutes. In only one case it was necessary 18,92mg/kg for a period of 70 minutes.

Foi estudada, em 8 animais da especie canina, uma tecnica operatoria para correcao de defeitos do pavilhao auricular, mediante implantacao de malha de polipropileno. Os resultados foram satisfatorios em 7 caes, que mostraram posicao ereta e movimentacao adequada das orelhas e ausencia de retracoes ou espessamento dos pavilhoes auriculares.

The use of Kuntscher medullary nailing with exposure of femur fracture field was studied in 9 dogs. From the fracture site, a guide pin was driven upward into the trochanteric region. Over the guide pin, the Kuntscher nail was driven downward from the trochanteric fossa. After the normal bony consolidation, the nail was removed. A solid fixation was provided controlling rotation as well as axial displacement by the “V” shaped cross section of the medullary nail.

Injecoes de 0,5 mg de prostaglandina F 2 alfa foram aplicadas, por via subcutânea, em 40 cadelas com sintomas clinicos de pseudociese. O produto mostrou-se eficiente em 37 animais, havendo necessidade de repeticao do tratamento em 4 casos. Em cerca de7 a 8 dias apos o tratamento houve retorno ao comportamento normal. Efeitos colaterais como vomitos e anorexia foram observados em um animal e sonolencia em outros tres. Discute-se o efeito luteolitico da PGF 2 alfa com base na regressao dos sintomas, embora nao se disponha de metodos adequados para analise quantitativa de LH e progesterona.

The authors reported a now method of trating so called hoematoma affecting dog’s ear, using in all cases an injection of triamcinolone acetonide (10 mg/ml), and all the fluid contained was removed prior the injection. After looking over the literature concerning and discussing the results obtained, the authors were able to conclude: The value of treatment with the synthetic corticosteroid injection has definitively been established and has given satisfactory results in at least 83,3 percent of the cases treated; 52 percent of these, have hand only one injection, 40 percent two and 8 percent three injections. In all cases the injections were done every 7 days. They didn't verify the thickness of the ear in 52 percent of the cases treated.
